If you get the right score (see below), Aura Lee (Love Me Tender) is a great practice exercise for some of the main chords used in popular songs. In that one arrangement you get to play G, A7, D7, B7, Em, G7, C, Cm, and E7, and all of that in just 16 measures (bars). What’s more it all sounds very nice and, if you work at it for a while, you could be serenading the one you love in no time.
It’s a wonderful little melody, I think, and it’s an added bonus that it’s a great practice piece for both electric and acoustic guitars. On top of everything else it’s in 4/4 time. What more could a beginner ask for? An explanation of 4/4 time? Some other time!

I had before rated this much better, but at this point I’ve realized that this guitar is mostly a joke and you’re better off dropping $300 for an Epiphone Les Paul Studio or $600 for a Paul Reed Smith SE Singlecut. If you’ve got it, the Paul Reed Smith is worth it in terms of build quality and playability (the neck feels better, hand slides easier, etc); but the Les Paul Studio isn’t bad.
hey there wonderful little web-site you have there
I operate the matching template on mine although for whatever nutty reasons it looks to reload easier on your blog eventhough the one you have is carrying considerably more material. Have you been using any kind of plug ins or widgets which quicken it up? Do you think you could possibly reveal the programs so that I would be able to use them on my own webpage so twilight new moon fans could watch twilight breaking dawn online trailers and videos more quickly I would always be pleased – many thanks ahead of time
